Grontmij | Carl Bro creates strategies and action plans for companies that want to work actively with climate issues. We mainly work on the basis of World Business Council for Sustainable Development’s method within Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in the climate area, and because of our previous projects in Danish companies, we have gained significant experience using the method.

Climate strategy

Mapping

In cooperation with the company, we define and map the company’s activities and the connected greenhouse gas emissions, which causes a complete picture of the company’s environmental impact to emerge.

Idea catalogue

Based on the mapping, we set up a number of possibilities and ideas for reducing the emission of greenhouse gas from those of the company's activities that have the largest effect on the company's emission.

Finances

The idea catalogue is ranked according to the financial aspect of the projects, which means that the most cost-effective CO2 initiatives are implemented first.

Objective

Based on the correlation between amounts and costs, the company can determine its objective for reduction of greenhouse gases.

Strategy

We establish a strategy for the company showing how the set goals can be achieved, which stakeholders that should be involved and which timeframes and financial frames that should be determined.

Action plan

As the final part of the project phase leading up to the final implementation, we will create clear action plans for the planned initiatives included in the strategy. The action plans include as aspects of the project phase.

Establishment of CO2 strategy for Novo Nordisk Grontmij | Carl Bro has assisted Novo Nordisk A/S in analysing various possibilities and involving relevant parties in development and specification of the CO2 strategy. Internal as well as external reduction possibilities have been examined, and various scenarios have been put forward and assessed with regard to cost-effectiveness, sustainability and realisability. The strategy was the basis for Novo Nordisk’s participation in the Climate Savers programme of WWF.

Mapping of greenhouse gases for Vestforbrænding Grontmij | Carl Bro has established a strategy for Denmark's largest waste incineration plant. The CO2 emission of the incineration plant has been mapped and frames and strategies have been established. The project resulted in a number of possible initiatives for Vestforbrænding in order to achieve their objective to reduce CO2 impact in their company. Arla Foods Climate change strategy Grontmij | Carl Bro has facilitated the establishment of Arla Foods' global climate strategy. In a controlled process, direction and delimitation of the climate strategy were determined. Furthermore, plans have been established for how the climate strategy should be implemented in all business processes of the organisation and at which pace the activities should be carried out.
